الوصف: Summary: We conducted a prospective chart review to determine the prevalence of and reasons for inappropriate Clostridioides difficile test-ordering at a tertiary care hospital. Inappropriate orders accounted for 54% of all tests. The two primary aetiologies of inappropriate test-ordering were an alternative reason for diarrhoea (34%) and an asymptomatic patient (20%). These results highlight the need to focus diagnostic stewardship of C. difficile testing on pre-analytical factors.
